Deterrent Event OOC planning
I'm looking ahead and the fact that it's capped means that we should absolutely prioritize people to get a chance.
At first blush, it seems like people with the highest Gunnery rolls and our Doctor is the best call

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
My best is 7k4 before edge, but it is only for the Computer's roll that gives 4 + 1/raise points

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
I would have to roll piloting to kick tanks because Brash. But I do have a base 10k4 to do so. Although it is the lowest point value option, so that is not ideal. But i get a free raise. With edge I have a good chance of getting 5 points. Shame about brash since I would get the anti aircraft FR on the other rolls.

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning

Point/Risk wise the most sensible option would be attacking drones for me, can get possible 6 Points out of it.

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
Ez has a 10k4 gunnery pool. I will happily shoot things down. Probably could plug drones for 8 points.

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
Overconfident says that I have to smash stuff but have a decent pool for it and a free raise so could probably net 4/5 points with it
Sorry Brash + Overconfident says I have to do it with 2 raises XD

And I just noticed the Orion has the Anti-Air quirk. Yeah, I am good for this.

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
Also the event doesn't specify that these count as combat rolls though they are somewhat flavored as such it seems possible Inherited Mech might apply its +1k1 since it isn't structured combat

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
I can play it safe for pretty much guaranteed (99%) 6 points, with a 85% chance of 8 pts and a 46% chance of 10 pts.
Or I can risk a little and go for 8 pts at 96%, with a 65% chance of 10 pts.

8points at 96% Chance seems like a reasonable gamble

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
With 9 players left to get 28 pts, I think I will play it safe, lest I cost us 6 points right away. I really do not trust Orokos on this one.
The safe option still has a 85% chance to get 8 pts anyway.
[update:] the safe option still gave me the full 10 pts possible. \o/

Catherine can shoot! ^-^

Re: Deterrent Event OOC planning
I'll probably slide in there even if I'm not optimal for flavor reasons. I can't imagine Alek not going out to crush people looking for our doorstep.
